Erm, if you are talking about your internet IP, that is set by your ISP not linux. To masquerade it I imagine you would have to pay for a commercial VPN service or something. Is this what you are asking about?

The fastest free VPN I've found is

http://us.hotfreevpn.com/

Fast enough to watch hulu when you are outside of the states. They also have a UK version

http://uk.hotfreevpn.com/

These are through PPTP so you just add the settings to your network connection.

AFAIK, PPTP isn't really that save, you do want OpenVPN.
And depending what you want to so, keep in mind,
Hidemyass.com (and other "free" VPN services) keep
log files and hand them over to the authorities upon
request, without court order or such.

Another issue is speed."Free" VPNs are unlikely to
be stable and fast.

torrentfreak has surveyed VPN providers and
asked the community. They have a list of
affordable VPNs, which do not keep log files.

I have tried most VPN services and use WiTopia, really worth the visit to their site. :D

If you're wanting to be hidden, then use vpntunnel.se (use the behind firewall option). They use Swedish servers and Sweden does not make them keep connection logs nor traffic logs.

I think you are using hotspot shield free version. Always remember this note that free vpns are not as much secure as the paid vpn so if you go with the paid account of vpn then I am sure you can easily hide your ip. So i will suggest you to try any best paid vpn service to keep you ip secure.

Best + Fast + Free = no such thing
:shock:
- if it's Free - they could be selling your profile data

you should always pay a small amount for it - maybe $5 or $10 /mth.
